Shazam!

There's a bag of costume jewelery I got from Kat, and one of the things it had in it was a little plastic shamrock. Last year, I misplaced it, and found it, of course, two days AFTER St. Pat's. This year I was determined to accessorize with it, so while FX was rerunning last week's Justified, I went rummaging through the strata atop my cedar chest.

I eventually located the bag with the shamrock, so I can wear it over to J's tomorrow---we're having a meeting to discuss some potential dogs---but that wasn't all I found. In addition to plenty of stuff I hadn't been looking for, I also ran across 11 cans, my second Cacique bra (which at this point is a whole lot more robust than the other one), my MP3 player---I've been going crazy looking for that!, a LeSnobbi change purse, still in the box, and my copy of Whoever Fights Monsters, memoirs of one of the FBI's pioneers of profiling.

Of course, I now have a mess of stuff piled on my bed, which will undoubtedly be moved BACK onto my cedar chest so I can go to bed, but hey, I found some missing shit. Life is good.

Right now, I'm just trying to stay awake. Between the time change and the dogs next door, I had maybe four hours of sleep last night, but I know if I nap now, I'll be up til 6AM again. I'll actually be in bed by midnight tonight.

Meeting with J this morning/afternoon, got a couple calls to make tomorrow. Also "borrowed" her soldering iron to modify the pieces I'm using to attach the "Bat Thing" hanging to the hanger. I should get it done this evening, somewhere between Criminal Minds and Justified.

Got a laugh out of J---the cell phone I got last month doesn't get signal at my house. I stuck it in my purse to carry around with me. The battery died. I stuck it on the charger, but it wouldn't come on. I was ready to march into WalMart and raise a fuss about what a crappy phone it was. J looked at it, pressed a button, and POOF! It worked. Apparently, I'd managed to turn it OFF. I'm glad she was amused. Since my $30 worth of minutes were wasted for three weeks, and I can't afford more, I'm not so happy. But at least it works.

I also left my dead laptop with her, in hopes she can resurrect it. Not holding my breath or stressing about it, since I've had its non-functioning self for about three years now.

Tried to load some new tunes onto my MP3 player last night. No such luck.

Technology is not my friend.
